This artwork, titled "Line," explores the balance between individuality and unity, a theme deeply rooted in Japanese culture. The piece portrays a lone zebra on the front, standing in quiet strength, while the back reveals a group moving together in harmony.

​

Zebras, with their distinctive stripes, symbolize both uniqueness and collectivity. In Japanese symbolism, they reflect the coexistence of personal identity within a larger community—an idea that resonates with Ishigai’s artistic vision. The monochrome palette enhances the contrast between solitude and togetherness, emphasizing the delicate equilibrium between independence and belonging.
